Import Civil 3D Model (dwg/ifc) with Extended Data

Hi all,

I trying to import a model authored in Civil 3D that has meta data attached using the Extended Data function as shown below. When I open or import the source DWG or exported .ifc with embedded data none of this pulls through into AECOsim. Does anyone have a solution for this interoperability problem?

  • Ran across this interesting presentation from the nascent RailBaltica project.

    Note the important role that .IFC is playing, and how OBD is used to generate IFC, not OpenRail ConceptStation.

    Also interesting is the absence of OpenRail Designer and the xml link between Civil3D and ORCS.

    And Navisworks being the aggregating app for IFC. I wonder Solibri isn't being used here. Navigator would be even better but it seems to be too busy trying to morph into imodel.Hub. One for the future?

    It would be great to sort out the Object Enabler stuff for CIVIL3D and MEP. As mentioned elsewhere, there should be an option on the OBD installer for this. We have never been able to get the OE's to work by just following the installation instructions.
